San Francisco's Free City and the State's California
Promise programs are a wonderful start at delivering a great
secondary education to all Californians by making community college
tuition free. But free tuition is only a part of the cost of attending
college. There's the high cost of rent, food, and transportation. Not
to mention books or medical expenses. Enter the Foundation Promise
Scholarship.

Announcement

We are delighted to announce that The Foundation Promise Program is
now partnering with the very successful Metro Transfer Academies!

Metro Transfer Academies (Metro) helps students stay on track at

counseling, access to a student resource room, tutoring, peer
mentoring, and a grounding in social justice while developing strong
